The Child Thief #1
The Child Thief
Bella Forrest
In a world where we have government of the rich by the rich for the rich…
America in 2105 is beset with mass inequality, poverty and increasingly large numbers of the poor. This, combined with the breakdown of families and marriages has led to huge economic and societal burdens. A fractured and divided America ushers in an authoritarian government that promises to solve all these problems in one stroke with a radical solution.
Welcome to the CRAS: the Child Redistribution Adoption System. Also known as the cure for America’s failing economy… and the bane of nineteen-year-old Robin Sylvone’s existence.
Under the System, not all parents can expect to keep the children they bring into the world: families who are not self-sustaining have their children taken and given to the rich.
And as a single teen mother, Robin fell within the scope of the scheme and lost her baby two years ago.
After being forced to drop out of school and become a factory worker in order to support herself, she doesn’t see much light in her future—or hold any hope of seeing her child again.
Until she stumbles upon a group of misfits who share her frustrations and desire for change. An underground movement that operates in some rather clever yet unconventional ways…
*By day they still call me Robin Sylvone. Factory worker and upper class reject. *
But now, by night, they call me Robin Hood…
Brimming with action, mystery and romance, fans of The Hunger Games or The Handmaid’s Tale will be gripped by this imaginative thrill-ride through a chillingly warped America.

The Child Thief #2
Deep Shadows
Bella Forrest
The heart-pounding second book of The Child Thief series.
After the night's shocking events, Robin, Jace, and their team find themselves thrust into a race for their lives.
Robin never could have imagined that things would go so wrong. Never could have dreamed that they would find what they found within that innocuous-looking building.
And now it's too late: they've seen what they've seen, and there is no time to talk. No time to even think. Not with the caliber of people who are now on their trail. Fleeing is their priority-but even if they escape, it's uncertain whether they will ever truly be free.
Because there's one thing Robin and her comrades can now count on: the deeper they dig in this strange world that was once called "the United States," the darker the shadows become...
